Masza

Mixed Breed · Female · Adult · 5 years

The stray dog was looking for a safe place to give birth. On a cold January day, she found shelter in someone’s barn and gave birth there. The beautiful little pups quickly found homes. We didn’t manage to help with the adoptions 😞😞😞 When we arrived at the location, we found only Masha—a wonderful, very young dog who was already deeply attached to humans. This gentle little lady is about 5 months old. She’ll grow to be the size of a German Shepherd. She’s been vaccinated and microchipped. She’s currently staying in the Kutno area.

Bezpańska sunia szukała bezpiecznego miejsca żeby urodzić W zimny styczniowy dzień znalazła schronienie w czyjejś stodole i tam urodziła. Piękne maluchy szybko znalazły domy. Nie zdążyliśmy pomóc w adopcjach 😞😞😞 Gdy pojechaliśmy na miejsce zastaliśmy tylko Masze-cudowna młodziutka sunie lgnącą do człowieka. Ta delikatna psia dziewczynka ma ok 5 miesięcy. Będzie miała gabaryty owczarka niemieckiego. Została zaszczepiona i zachipowana. Obecnie przebywa w okolicach Kutna.

About Masza

What life with Masza looks like

Masza is a medium-sized adult mixed breed dog waiting at Fundacja Puszatek in Warszawa.

An adult dog fits most household rhythms once the first couple of weeks of adjustment pass. Two reasonable walks a day plus play time is usually enough. Plan a "decompression fortnight" — quiet routine, no visitors, no off-leash adventures — to let them settle.

🇵🇱Adopting from Poland

Polish shelters maintain established transport routes to Germany, Netherlands, Austria, and Sweden. Animals leave sterilized and chipped. Adoption fees are typically lower than in Western Europe (often €50–€150) but adopters cover transport.

Frequently asked

Adopting Masza, answered.

How do I contact the shelter about Masza?
Use the phone, email, or website link in the sidebar of this page. Fundacja Puszatek handles screening and the adoption contract directly — TailHarbor doesn't broker the conversation. When you reach out, mention you saw Masza on TailHarbor so they know which animal you're asking about.
Can I adopt Masza if I live in another country?
Yes, in most cases. Rescues across Europe routinely place animals abroad — Fundacja Puszatek will tell you what they need (EU pet passport, rabies titer, transport coordination) and whether they handle transport themselves or refer you to a partner. Plan for an extra €100–€350 in transport costs depending on distance.
Is Masza already vetted, vaccinated, and chipped?
Most dogs on TailHarbor leave their shelter with sterilization, current vaccinations, microchip ID, and an EU pet passport included in the adoption fee. The vet status on this page reflects what the shelter has reported — ask them directly if you need details on specific vaccines, recent bloodwork, or chronic conditions.
What happens if Masza isn't the right fit?
Every reputable rescue accepts an animal back if the adoption genuinely doesn't work — that's part of the standard contract. Talk it through with Fundacja Puszatek early rather than rehoming privately; they know Masza and can place them more successfully than a second-hand listing can.
Why does the description sometimes read awkwardly?
TailHarbor translates shelter descriptions into English from the source language (PL). Translation is imperfect — names of streets, donors, and shelter-specific terms occasionally slip through unidiomatically. For the cleanest read, click the source link to see the shelter's original page.
